A New Icon for Columbia’s Skyline
Rising above West 126th Street with striking vertical lines and a glass-clad façade, Forten at Columbia presents a bold yet refined architectural statement in the Columbia University residential district. Designed by Peter Poon Architects, the 18-story structure blends modern symmetry with light-filled transparency — its clean geometry softened by a series of landscaped terraces.
Floors 2 through 7 are home to a Hilton-branded luxury hotel, setting a tone of understated elegance and international polish. The ground floor features thoughtfully programmed retail space including restaurants, and a bar, offering everyday convenience in a sophisticated setting.
Above the hotel, the upper residential levels offer a collection of studio to three-bedroom homes, each designed for seamless city living — with panoramic views, floor-to-ceiling windows, and access to an amenity suite rivaling private clubs. This is Columbia living, reimagined for the modern era.
Just steps from Columbia University, one block from the A/B/C/D lines, and with a dedicated shuttle to campus, Forten sits at the intersection of city energy and campus serenity. From nearby cafés to riverside parks and cultural institutions, everything you need is close — and beautifully connected.
